After making a background, the spell-list is not displaying any spells selected in the background.

I tried testing this with a template from a existing background and with building the background from scratch.
But so far, nothing seems to work, I even tried renaming the spell-list name so it might work but so no avail.

Is anyone else having this issue, or has anyone found a workaround?

Which spells?

All spells, none of the added spells has shown up.

The spell-list only shows "Spell Level" and "Spells", but then the table directly ends and "Spell List Extended Description" is shown under it.

Add that background to a character with any Spellcasting class, and then look at the actual character sheet itself. Go to the Spells tab and then click on “Manage Spells” and look at the list of spells that you can add/prepare. Do you see any spells listed with a little symbol of a + inside a circle? Are they the spells you added?

Yes, the spells are added on the spell-list of the class and it can learn it.
But in the background itself my players and I cannot see which spells the background contain.
It seems that the page has some kind of bug that the table name is not saved correctly or something.

I'm having this same issue.

 Sorry it took so long for me to notice this, I get a lot of notifications and some just slip through. Again, sorry ‘bout that.

Look at the little grey buttons* at the top of these fields and find the one with the following symbol:  </>  That symbol will let you edit the actual code for what gets displayed. You can test your theory there by making sure that it is the correct table.

But there is no place to edit the "List of Spells" other than to select the spells.  They are supposed to copy from there into the table.  We do not have direct edit access to the table.

I keep forgetting that. Nevermind me.

I did find out if you add an html table, using the </> source block option, like the one below to the Spell List Extended Description it will display under the table header and look like it belongs there.

<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="120">Cantrip</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Mage Hand</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="120">Cantrip</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Produce Flame</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="120">Cantrip</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Ray of Frost</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="120">1st</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Fire Bolt</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="120">1st</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Grease</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="120">1st</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Identify</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

If you really want it to look like it belongs to the header add -20px margin-top to the table, then the gap vanishes:

<table style="margin-top: -20px;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td width="120">Cantrip</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Mage Hand</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="120">Cantrip</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Produce Flame</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="120">Cantrip</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Ray of Frost</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="120">1st</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Fire Bolt</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="120">1st</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Grease</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="120">1st</td>
<td style="text-align: left;">Identify</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>

The downside is, that it looks wierd in the editor.

That works great, thanks.  Now if I could just figure out how to get the rows to be thinner.  Standard height and cellpadding instructions are completely ignored.

I found it!  There is apparently a built-in CSS class called compendium-left-aligned-table in their standard page design, which it appears can be used on homebrew tables.  Combined with your recommendation (fyi, found out -21 works best), the following table definition works great for Spell List Extended Description to add the list of spells.

<table style="margin-top: -21px;" class="compendium-left-aligned-table">

Your right, if the borders overlap it looks way better, thanks for the info 😊.

Alright, I finally had time to check and actually remembered this and 🛐🐮!! Wow that’s so much better. Thanks to both of you KamauWolfson, and Vrizsemoz! Fantastic. “May the ‘Brew be With You.” Or “‘Brew Long and Prosper.” (Whichever you each prefer.)
